The DeKalb County Police Department has identified the officer who was fatally shot while responding to a gunman near the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia.

The officer, David Rose, was shot while responding to a shooting at the CDC campus on Friday. The suspected gunman, whose identity has not been released, was also killed.

Rose was transported to Emory University Hospital on Clifton Road, where he died from his injuries.

According to the police department, Rose joined the force last September and is survived by his pregnant wife and two children.

The incident began shortly before 5 p.m. when a man opened fire in front of the CDC campus, Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum said. When officers arrived, they found Rose critically wounded and heard more gunfire coming from a nearby CVS pharmacy.

Officers entered the store and located the shooter on the second floor with at least one gunshot wound. Schierbaum said it remains unclear whether the wound was caused by police gunfire or was self-inflicted.
